Show IH: RememberTheAPI - everyday items for every programmer!

Hello IH,

I just launched RememberTheAPI.com - an online store for everyday items (coffee mugs, phone cases, stationery, etc.) that are designed to display commonly used technical information to help software developers in their work life. It solves the problem of interrupting workflow to look up common APIs and shell commands. My items are positioned in the intersection of physical and informational products - each of them is physical object that can be used in everyday life, but also has some information printed on the visible surface.

My goal is to provide a different kind of developer merchandise - not focused on slogans and jokes, but focused on actually making software people more efficient and productive.

All of this is done through couple print on demand vendors based in USA, which makes shipping reasonably fast to American customers.

Please visit at: https://remembertheapi.com/

Please let me know what you think about all aspects of the store and products.

    Revamped the colors of some of my products to look better both on screen and when printed.

    I'm impressed :) That's a great idea even useful for productiveness. I guess I'll give it a try. Anyway I was wondering if Shopify handle even the payment integration or just the frontend. I would love if you can tell me more about it

      In my case the store uses Shopify Paypal integration that comes out of the box when you create a store. I don't ever see or get credit card details. Beyond that, Shopify has a number of payment providers available, including their own - Shopify Payments.
